Anonymous user access to the web server application directories must be prohibited.
Description
Discussion Text
To properly monitor the changes to the web server and the hosted applications, logging must be enabled. Additionally, each record must properly contain the changes made and the names of those who made the changes.
Allowing anonymous users the capability to change the web server or the hosted application will not generate proper log information that can then be used for forensic reporting in the case of a security issue. Allowing anonymous users to make changes will also grant change capabilities to anybody without forcing a user to authenticate before the changes can be made.
This requirement also applies to Zero Trust initiatives.
